.SH "NAME"
ndrdump \- DCE/RPC Packet Parser and Dumper
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBndrdump\fR\ 'u
\fBndrdump\fR [\-c\ context] {pipe} {format} {in|out|struct} {filename}
.HP \w'\fBndrdump\fR\ 'u
\fBndrdump\fR [pipe]

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
ndrdump tries to parse the specified
\fIfilename\fR
using Samba\*(Aqs parser for the specified pipe and format\&. The third argument should be either
\fIin\fR,
\fIout\fR
or
\fIstruct\fRdepending on whether the data should be parsed as a request, reply or a public structure\&.
.PP
Running ndrdump without arguments will list the pipes for which parsers are available\&.
.PP
Running ndrdump with one argument will list the functions and public structures that Samba can parse for the specified pipe\&.
.PP
The primary function of ndrdump is debugging Samba\*(Aqs internal DCE/RPC parsing functions\&. The file being parsed is usually one exported by wiresharks
\(lqExport selected packet bytes\(rq
function\&.
.PP
The context argument can be used to load context data from the request packet when parsing reply packets (such as array lengths)\&.
.SH "VERSION"
.PP
